ICT PLACEMENTS FOR INTERNS AND VOLUNTEERS

CVO has put together the Information Technology and Computer Volunteer Program, in recognition of it as an efficient means of communication. With basic computer skills. Africa not only have greater employment prospects, but you can access a wealth of global knowledge to help them locally. By promoting computer science in Africa to our youths, our volunteers are empowering our community to explore and take charge of new possibilities for growth.
More than 97% of youths in Africa do not have access to computers. Very few public schools have introduced Information Technology centres and if they do, there is limited computer access. As well as unreliable power, and at the same time with only few teachers who are qualified to teach such skills. Widespread computer skills are still in its inception in Africa, therefore it is essential that they be provided to eager youths giving them the same opportunities as their counterparts around the world. Even basic skills can empower communities – as a foundation for future self-guided learning.
Volunteers will assist youths,school children with theoretical and practical classes. Generally classes last for 110 minutes and a volunteer would be having 4 classes a week. The volunteer can form courses from basic computer skills up to advanced, as well as providing basic hardware maintenance tips. Computer skills education is valuable, as an investment for future gains and something that will remain long-term.
